Houston Restaurant Openings to Know Right Now, April 2025 | Eater Houston

"A West African and Jamaican street-food concept offering a blend of Senegalese and Caribbean flavors—expect jollof rice, grilled, barbecued, and slow-braised seasoned meats, hand-held sandwiches, and a rich peanut butter stew—paired with cooling beverages like ginger drinks, hibiscus juice, and passion fruit lemonade; the concept has drawn high-profile praise at previous locations." - Brittany Britto Garley

Yummy! I ordered the grill tilapia (Poisson Braise) from this restaurant and the flavor was delicious. The fish was nicely seasoned. The crispiness of the fish left me wanting more, so much that I ordered the same entree the next day!

The Yassa Poulet that Marwan prepared was absolutely fantastic! I couldn’t even take a pic of it because it was soo good. The chicken wasn’t greasy, it had moisture and everything else was also cooked to perfection. The vibe here is cozy and mostly quiet. They even have a little games to play like Jenga and Checkers while we wait on our food. There’s some good places here to check out!
